This article will explain how to add files from the Mediagraph Library to your Lightbox, click here to learn how to upload your own files directly to a Lightbox.

Note: If you add an asset to a Bin, it will be added automatically to the Lightbox that contains the Bin.

Add to a Lightbox with drag and drop

Select one of more files, and drag onto a Lightbox. A count of selected files appears, and all selected files will be added to the Lightbox.

1. Select assets you would like to add.
2. Drag to the desired Lightbox and wait for the Lightbox to highlight.
3. Release.
4. If you are dragging a large number of files, wait for the “adding” dialog to finish before doing another action. 
5. If the asset count does not immediately update, click the refresh icon for the My Projects panel.

Add to a Lightbox with the Action Menu

Sometimes it’s easier to add selected files to a Lightbox by using the action menu. This is particularly useful if you have not already made the desired Lightbox. 

1. Select the assets you would like to add to your Lightbox.
2. Mouse over the Action Menu in the upper left corner of the Workspace.
3. Click Add to Lightbox…
4. Select the desired Lightbox.
5. You have the option to create a new Lightbox from within the pop-up. Mouse over the + to open the dropdown menu to create a new container.
6. Click Submit.

Add to a Lightbox with right-click

You can add selected files to a Lightbox in both the Grid and Asset views by right-click. This will bring up the same dialog we see with the Action Menu.

1. Right-click on a file in the grid view.
2. Click on Add to Lightbox... from the dropdown.
3. Select an existing Lightbox or make a new one.
4. All selected files will be added to the Lightbox.
